Instead of chomping down on horribly uncomfortable x-ray plates while they shoot you from twelve different angles, our dentist has the neatest machine. You just stand still, stick your head on a chin rest (like the optometrist) and BOOM, the x-ray machine circles your head and takes one full set of x-rays in about 30 seconds.
Plus, it's digital, so there are no nasty chemicals to process the x-rays and by the time you park your butt in the chair for your cleaning, you can see your teeth on the tv screen.
Here are K's pearly whites . . . I love how you can see both the baby teeth AND the grown up teeth. Even her molars show up (in the back) and we won't see those for years yet. Too cool!
